This is false. I believe the cable modems themselves filter NetBIOS
*broadcasts*, but not NetBIOS ports -- this would explain why you can't see
your @Home 'node-neighbors' in your Network Neighborhood.

I have my y: drive mapped to a shared drive on an NT server (on a different
ISP) via the internet right now... My z: drive is mapped to an @Home
node-neighbor. Like the guy said: check out your lmhosts.sam file and go
from there.
